This marking is found on the sweatband of a VIRO made visor cap. Could anybody tell me what it says.
Is it Deutches Handarbeit?

Is it normal on a VIRO visor cap?

Deutsches Industrie... Billbert

Even with that limited pic, the hat is an original Carl Bangert, aka Viro

Let's see the rest of it!

Thank's

It was difficult to read that marking. But now, with your help, I see that it is Deutche Industrie.

I tought that VIRO was the mark that was used by Willy Rohe, Koblenz. Carl Bangert is also a Koblenz firm, is it possible that they have used the same brand?

Have just bought the cap, but you can see it here:

The price is about what you have to pay for an Infantry visor in good condition today. I have been looking at several, but it is hard to find one in good condition and quality. I like the Viro's.

Congrats on a nice visor hoggtannlars --- still, without trying to make you feel bad about your purchase; you should have checked our E-stand first. With a little patience, you would have managed to get two in perfect condition for that money.

On the other hand, those Viros are very nice and if it's exactly what you were looking for, it was money well spent. Please post more pics once it's in your hands...
